It will be interesting to see if/when they actually double our earnings, or how they weasel out of it.

Another question, does anyone know how to tell how many images you have for sale there now? I used to be able to see this by clicking on an image and then my contributor name, but that doesn't seem to work anymore.

I hate how they removed the portfolio numbers, I was looking for that too. I also can't update my profile info (location, website) etc even though the fields are there, the save button never enables.

Seems like they are just tinkering with the contributor end but never finishing things off.

Removing download numbers and not even paying close to double, what's more, it's about 20% less than the previous month.

If they don't intend to keep their promise, I'll be gone in 6 months. We'll see what next month brings. Is there any kind of public Canva forum?

I just received my payment, and it was the EXACT double of my March earnings (My real earnings were about 60% above March)


They kept their promise.

Good for them for putting their money where their mouth is. I respect their honesty

And of course, it does not matter that this "double your income" comes at the cost of buyers stockpiling hundreds of your images. But then, since they don't display the download numbers that problem is also solved. If we cannot see those high download numbers they do not exist, right?  >:(

Yep, got double my March earnings. At least they're keeping their promise in that regard.

What still worries me is how the subscription revenue will develop after the 6 month period is over. It will probably mean more downloads for less revenue, so in essence it's still a very obvious bait 'n trap concept.

They said that purchases under the scheme could only be used on designs within the platform right? Please tell me this right!

Correct, buyers cannot download these images, they can only use them within canva. They need a different license I believe to actually download them.

Same, received exactly double of March earning and I appreciate it. I do hope that the income do rise in the next 6 months so that we can maintain this revenue after 6 months. Time will tell, but so far, so good.

Is that a technical limitation or are we all counting on the fact that all buyers are honest?

Buyers are honest as contributors are

Technical limitation. There is no "download" option, only "remove watermark" within the app.

Has someone else suddenly a negative account balance ? (for me since last night, close to the extra double payment)

Everything seems normal to me at the moment.
